History

Dildar nagar lies on the road from Varanasi to Buxar and 20 Km. from Ghazipur. Between the town and the station there is mound called Akhandha, said to have been the seat of Raja Nal and the large tank to the west is called Rani Sagar after his famous queen Damayanti. In the center of the mound are the ruins of two temples..A Hindu settlement owes its present name, perhaps, to Sadi." During the tenure of Aurangzeb a few market centres developed such as Dildarnagar (tahsil Zemania) named after one of his officials. Dildarnagar,2 village in tahsil Zamaniya, 20 miles south of Ghazipur, derives its name from a Pathan named Dildar Khan who settled here in the reign of Aurangzeb, after having destroyed the ancient Hindu town of Akhandha [1] The Mughals were victorious and the Rajput army was scattered. Dham Deo and his elder brother Kam Deo came down to Ghazipur with their families and followers. According to a book, Evolution and Spatial Organization of Clan Settlement by S H Ansari the SikarwarRajputs of Gahmar (one of biggest villages in Asia situated on the bank of river Ganga) emerged from Dham Deo andBhumihar and Kamsar Pathans emerged from Kam Deo. Many of the Khanzada Rajputs villages are situayed near the town of Dildarnagar.
